Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality
General Scheme of the Inspection of Places of Detention Bill 2022: Discussion
Pa Daly (Kerry, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source
Dr. Garrihy mentioned a prison ombudsman. What is his view on the level of complaint it should address? I note he has studied Australia and New Zealand comparatively. What qualifications do the members of the prison visiting committees there have? Do they have experience of having dealt with police or prisons, or some sort of inspection in their professional careers before going into this type of work?
